Jody Meese explores how the deliberate practice of lettering reshapes attention and fosters community. In learning to slow down, she considers how working with a pen becomes a quiet act of resistance, and how time on our hands may be exactly what we need. In a culture obsessed with speed, calligraphy insists on time. A reflection on why deliberate work still matters. Meese is a professional lettering artist of the left-handed persuasion and has a Master of Fine Arts degree from California Institute of the Arts. Her work has come to include commercial chalkboards, illuminated manuscripts, calligraphic engraving and more. Presented by Book Arts & Special Collections and The Friends of Calligraphy.
